Using ERB with "Test Webhook" functionality raises an exception

XMLWordPrintable

    • Low
    • None

      Description of problem:
      When I use ERB in the webhook's Target URL, the testing the webhook throws an exception. E.g. using "http://machine.example.com/inventory/<%= @object.id %>", a test throws:
      """
      Error
      Webhook test failed: undefined method '#id' for NilClass::Jail (NilClass)
      """

      When testing a webhook, the following is shown to the user:
      """
      You are about to test test webhook. Please, note that this will not contain actual information or render the attached template. You can specify below a custom payload to test the webhook with.
      """

      It states that the request's content won't contain the actual info. But this is in target URL. It's understandable why it doesn't work because while testing, there is actually no object to populate that variable with. But it may be unexpected by the user.

      Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
      Sat 6.14.0, previous versions didn't have Test Webhook functionality

      How reproducible:
      Deterministic

      Steps to Reproduce:
      1. Administer -> Webhooks -> Create
      2. Fill in, use a variable in the target URL, e.g. "http://machine.example.com/inventory/<%= @object.id %>"
      3. Submit, Test Webhook

      Actual results:
      The variable can't be used

      Expected results:
      The variable can be used or the failure is more expectable by the user, it shouldn't look like a bug
